Sir,

Success comes from taking an initiative and following it up persistent­ly and eloquently expressing the depth of your love. What simple action can you take today to produce momentum towards success in your life?

When developing the spirit of excellence, it’s a fundamenta­l prerequisi­te to believe in yourself. Believe that anything is possible, for success depends on your willpower. Don’t pray to be sheltered from danger, but to be fearless when facing it. Don’t beg for your pain to go away, but for your heart to conquer it.

Whenever you succeed in life, whatever dream you are inspired to, just keep it a secret. The spirit of excellence requires one to have intrinsic actions when dealing with a task. Ensure that you are a person of morality and follow your ethics. Be ambitious of your own dreams because they are the cornerston­e of your character.

Achieve

Be aware that whenever you achieve something in life, you are not done yet, you are not perfect yet. Just have the attitude that you are ‘always improving’ at anything you achieve in life. That attitude will ensure that you cope and strive as you grope towards being successful. This attitude will give you strength, it will make others to be covetous of you. And others will habour hatred. You should know that what you did brought about the jealousy towards you.

Know that the price of excellence is discipline in life and the cost of mediocrity is disappoint­ment. So don’t envy materialis­m.

Never let words from other people disempower you, no matter what, even if you may be an outcast. Just break down the walls in front of you and make them your bridge to prosperity.

You too can be that prosperous if you believe in yourself. You were born to be a conqueror. Note that the world belongs to optimists.

So be persistent and hopeful; for hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible and achieves the impossible. There is nothing like a dream to create the future. It’s only you who can change your life, not others!
